Dedicated to a girl
I was challenged by my very dear friend Ethan to partake in the #guardyourlight challenge that T E E J ✿ launched spontaneously a few days ago on her Flickr.
I was inspired and snapped this last night. Now it's my turn to challenge some talented artists to keep it alive and do something inspired by those words !
Friends, if you've been tagged,
grab your cameras and "Guard your light! "
----
”You have this way of seeing the Light in others. You have this way of noticing what is beautiful and unique about those around you. And I just hope you know, the same Light you see within others is shining within you too. You have this way of holding up a mirror to others and making sure they feel seen, and this is a very valuable thing. But sometimes, that can make you feel a little less seen yourself... a little less valuable, and less important than everyone else. So in case no one told you lately, it’s okay to turn that mirror around and see you for you, too. And know that no matter who does or does not notice you, Light is running wild within you. It shows up in your laughter. Your stories. Your presence. And I am sorry for all the times no one has taken the time to let you know this, in the same way that you have done this for so many others. I just wanted to remind you this is true: the same Light you see in others is shining within you, too.”

Compositionally Challenged Week 20 - Active Space
After looking in my bird books, I think this is a Swainson's Hawk.
We watched the hawk for several minutes while it moved from one branch to another before it took flight carrying a piece of bark.
This bull elk wasn't having much luck wooing this pretty cow elk. He was persistent tho.....
"Bulls wallow in mud to coat themselves with urine that acts as a "perfume" to attract cows. If mud is available, bulls also wallow during mating season. A thorough mud covering cools off an over-heated bull, spreads his scent evenly over has body, and makes him look even more imposing.
An elks bugle is among the more haunting and beautiful in nature, as memorable as the howls of wolves and the calls of loons.
A cow listens to the bugle for clues about the bull's size. A bugle, like a human voice, varies with the individual, but the older, larger bulls usually bugle more loudly than their young rivals. Their bugles advertise their presence and fitness to both females and other males. They also bugle to announce or accept a challenge from another male." visitestespark.com
Watching this dance of life is one of the most entertaining and beautiful animal acts in nature, IMHO.
Hope your weekend is off to a great start!
For years, I've been asked to do pictures of me as comic book women, so I've done some online research to find out who they are and what they look like. Then I put together costumes to get their look as close as I can. Usually, it takes a good bit of photo editing. Making their look and building sets or finding good locations is a fun process. Thanks to the people who have suggested who they would like me to appear as. I have more in the works. If you have any suggestions, please drop me a line.
For this week's MacroMondays

After complaining that the bluebells were not so good this year, it seems like all they needed was a few days of rain. A few days ago I was in a tiny bit of woodland that was absolutely covered in bluebells and was so beautiful to look at. I took quite a few pictures but I always struggle to find those great compositions in woodland, at least in Penwith, where most of the trees are untidy sycamores, which have often fallen in the last lot of gales and the undergrowth is mainly brambles. But I like a challenge so every year I will keep trying.
The challenge calls for "My Favourite Things". I have lots of favourite things to choose from but visiting the Sumatran Tigers at Australia Zoo is really a great pleasure.
"Australia Zoo is home to some of the last surviving Indonesian species of big cat – the Sumatran tiger!
Found throughout the forests and grasslands of Sumatra, these big cats are the smallest of all remaining tiger species. They are an impressive and powerful hunter with the ability to jump up to 5 metres (16 feet) in length! Using their stealthy stalking abilities, they will successfully hunt deer, pigs, jungle fowl and fish. Sumatran tigers have a range of vocalisations and communication tools. Their roar can be heard up to 3 kilometres (1.8 miles) away. Crikey! Like all tiger species, their beautiful orange and black striped coat is unique to every individual, just like our fingerprints!
Sumatran tigers are a critically endangered species. There are fewer than 350 left in the wild. These beautiful animals are victim to the illegal wildlife pet trade, illegal poaching for traditional medicine, illegal hunting for pelts and meat, as well as experiencing rapid deforestation and habitat loss. They are a species that is facing certain extinction without our protection."
Noshinima Midas.
I am introducing a new form of challenge for all the lovely photographers of Second Life. Something that I have been working on for 2 months after being inspired by others that have done similar challenges for their friends. I would like to call this the Challenge at Noshinima's Neighborhood. I am considering making this a regular thing, where every few months I will come up with a new interesting backdrop to challenge more lovely artists in.
Rules and details:
1) I (Noshinima Midas) tag names of great photographers on Second Life. Said photographers that choose to participate in the challenge can come over to my parcel, Noshinima's Neighborhood (link below) and do an image anywhere in my penthouse. You will be allowed two hours to use any pose stands or props that you would like to add and are allowed to bring any friends you want to join you in your shoot. You are also allowed to make the shoot as safe or as adult as you like. The only rule is that you do the shoot within my penthouse. Take your time to have a look around to see where in the house would make a great place for your image.
2) Upload the finished image onto Flickr and place the hashtag #NoshsHoodChallenge on either the title or the description.
3) From there, tag 10 of your friends names (no more, no less) of people that you would also like to see do this challenge that has not yet been tagged by me on this post. Link them to this post and explain the rules to them as well. They must also tag 10 of their friends that they would like to see do this challenge if they themselves choose to participate as well.
I am available every day. If anyone has any questions, comments or would like help in their shoots, be sure to contact me on Flickr or Second Life.
To everyone tagged, remember that once you do the shoot from my penthouse, tag 10 names that you would also like to see do this challenge and use the hashtag #NoshsHoodChallenge
Here is the link to my penthouse:

Just a disclaimer. This is not a contest. It is simply a challenge for anyone to use my house in their photography as they see fit. Use any creative tactics you choose.

It's mainly very expensive clothes for people who spend summer holidays on boats. With summer over, I don't think there will be many customers. There was only one boat left in the harbour after I saw the last three sailboats leave. The canal will now be closed until next summer.
Saturday Self-challenge - numbers
At this time of year it doesn't get totally dark. This week there has been some red sky in the distance every night. Hope this is ok even though it is neither blue hour or dark.
